The Rich Cultivator-Chapter 350. Tyler vs Su Fei

When Tyler’s eyes turned white, the entire world around him dissolved into a blinding void.

A strange sensation welled up from deep within his soul—an ancient voice, neither male nor female, whispered in his mind:

"Break free... Collapse the world. Sever the chains..."

But Tyler didn’t act on it.

Not yet.

Instead, he raised his hand and whispered, "Chess Domain."

In an instant, the battlefield was swallowed by a massive checkerboard of alternating red and white squares. The very fabric of space groaned as Tyler’s domain overlaid reality, challenging the existing rules. The shrine in the distance remained untouched, a silent observer amid chaos.

The white glow in Tyler’s eyes faded as the domain fully activated.

He now hovered mid-air, face calm and focused.

"I should change the name later. The name ’Chess Domain’ seems lame.." He muttered.

Across from him, Su Fei narrowed her eyes, visibly surprised. Her three tails flicked in the wind.

"Not bad..." she said, her voice sultry but tinged with amusement. "You escaped my Soul Purge. Most would’ve been broke into pieces."

Her praise was genuine, though her eyes glittered with a predator’s interest.

Lily, meanwhile, sprang into action. With a flick of her wrist, she summoned two whips—one was her signature weapon, and the other was the stolen Raptor’s Whip, humming with latent thunder. Lightning crackled along both weapons, dancing across her body like a second skin. Sparks shot from her feet as she dashed to Tyler’s side.

Tyler unsheathed his trident, its blade wrapped in tendrils of swirling Abyss Aura. The weapon seemed alive, pulsing with malice.

Su Fei chuckled and casually opened a delicate folding fan, glowing with wind essence. With one elegant sweep, she flicked it in Tyler’s direction.

A powerful gust slammed into him like a mountain. He barely had time to react before the wind sent him flying backwards, skidding through the air.

"Tyler!" Lily shouted.

She whipped one of her lightning-charged cords forward. It coiled perfectly around Tyler’s ankle, crackling with force. With a yank, she pulled him back toward her like a stormy yo-yo.

Tyler regained balance mid-flight, somersaulted once, then hovered again. "Thanks," he muttered.

The battle had officially begun.

The red and white pattern of Tyler’s domain intensified, now spreading even further across the landscape. Underneath him, red scales began to form along his arms and neck. His eyes glowed faintly.

Mode Dragon

In contrast, Su Fei’s wind began to whip up violently. A tempest howled around her, buffeting the checkerboard terrain with elemental resistance. Yet the domain held strong. The two realities—wind and chess—rippled and distorted around each other like oil and water trying to coexist.

Tyler suddenly threw his trident.

The weapon whirled through the air, but what struck Su Fei wasn’t just the physical weapon—it was the projection of it. Multiple ethereal copies formed mid-flight and split off in a flurry, all heading toward Su Fei from different angles.

He used his Divine Sense to control the trajectory.

She clicked her tongue and waved her fan. A barrier of wind encased her body, forming a rotating cyclone that deflected the first few tridents. But the Abyss energy embedded in each projection began corroding the shield like acid on flesh.

"Persistent," she muttered.

Then, she felt a flicker of danger.

Looking down, she saw it—a white square from Tyler’s domain had materialized beneath her. A trap.

"Icicles," Tyler whispered.

The white square activated, and an invisible mental spike stabbed into Su Fei’s mind—like a thousand frozen needles drilling into her consciousness. The move was one of Tyler’s most deceptive techniques, enhanced within his domain. It overwhelmed the enemy’s mental defenses while sharpening his own awareness.

Su Fei winced, clutching her temple as the headache flared through her psyche.

In that moment of vulnerability, Lily struck. She activated Phantom Mask and disappeared.

When she reappeared she was near Su Fei.

She launched forward, her dual whips flashing like streaks of lightning across the sky. The electric force danced in the air, echoing like thunderclaps. One whip wrapped around Su Fei’s wrist, while the second lashed at her fan-hand with searing heat.

Su Fei’s expression twisted. "Enough."

She clenched her fan, and it glowed with brilliant wind energy.

With a roar, she unleashed a pulse of divine force that rippled across the battlefield. The very air trembled. The red and white squares of the chessboard cracked, spiderwebs of light spreading outward as if the ground beneath were breaking apart.

Lily was blown backward, lightning fizzing around her body as she tumbled through the sky.

Tyler staggered, the feedback from his domain’s partial collapse sending shockwaves through his mind.

Su Fei stood tall, fanning the wind like a queen of storms.

Tyler gritted his teeth as he hovered midair, blood trailing from the corner of his mouth. His body was battered, his chest scorched with residual wind marks from Su Fei’s earlier attack.

Without hesitation, he pulled out a glowing pill from his storage ring and popped it into his mouth. The medicinal essence surged through his veins like wildfire, mending torn flesh and shattered bones in mere seconds.

Su Fei raised a perfectly arched brow, her lips curling into a mocking smile. "That looked expensive," she sneered. "How many of those can you possibly have, little boy?"

Tyler didn’t reply. He simply wiped the blood from his chin and smirked.

Lily landed beside him, her breathing heavy, whips still sparking with electricity. "Any plans?" she asked, eyes flicking warily between him and Su Fei, who floated gracefully above the shrine with her fan outstretched and three tails flicking like serpents in the wind.

In response, Tyler hurled his trident forward.

Su Fei casually slapped it away with her fan, sending the weapon spiraling to the ground like a toy.

Lily shot him a dry look. "Any better plans?"

Tyler’s eyes narrowed. "Let’s attack her faster."

As if summoned by his words, dark thunderclouds began to churn above the battlefield. Within seconds, the clear sky was swallowed by ominous gray. Thunder boomed. Rain began to pour, soaking the checkerboard terrain below. Then, unexpectedly, sharp hailstones of ice began crashing down along with the rain.

"Rain Domain..." Tyler muttered under his breath, his tone calm but resolute.

Su Fei’s fan paused midair. Her eyes widened slightly in surprise. "You have... two domains?" she asked, the playful tone in her voice replaced by a flicker of wariness.

Even Lily blinked, stunned. "Since when?!"

Tyler didn’t answer immediately. He never trusted the origin of the Chess Spell. Something about it felt off. He feels like the Chess Spell and his abnormal luck came to him by someone. And that someone is manipulating behind the scenes.

So, during his Grandmaster breakthrough, Tyler made a decision. He constructed different Domain—not based on Chess Spell, but rooted in ancient Kunpeng Art he got from the Kun Peng Ruins. A Domain birthed from water and Sky. Since he didn’t get the Peng part, his domain is not complete.

He expected with new Domain, he doesn’t need to use his Chess Domain.

But instead, he found out that he can use both of his domains.

A rare Dual Domain user. Something thought to be impossible, even mythical, within the Boundless World. And now, he wielded it as his secret weapon.

"The ’Kun’ in Kunpeng represents the ocean—its domain is water," Tyler explained quickly to Lily. "As long as Kun is in water, no can reach its speed.."

Without warning, Tyler hurled his trident again—but this time, it was no illusion or projection. He threw the real weapon, fully charged with Abyssal Energy and Ice Essence.

Su Fei swung her fan, expecting an easy block.

But this time, she struggled. The trident didn’t bounce away. It pushed her, forced her back midair, the Abyss energy gnawing at her fan’s wind aura.

And that was all the opening Tyler needed.

He vanished.

To an outside observer, it was as if Tyler had blinked out of existence, leaving only a trail of water vapor behind. Su Fei’s eyes darted around, trying to locate him—but she was too slow.

He reappeared right behind her, arm cocked back, fist glowing with a reddish light.

Boom!

His speed had reached a level akin to the legendary Kunpeng swimming through the deepest currents—fluid, relentless, and nearly invisible. The Rain Domain amplified every movement, granting him velocity that rivaled lightning.

Deep Sea Punch.

The Punch that contains pressure of the deep sea.

His punch soared toward Su Fei’s unguarded face.

Then—

"Reversal."

The word left Su Fei’s lips like a commandment. Her three tails turned into Nine Tails.

In an instant, Tyler froze mid-strike, his body suspended in the air as though time itself had chained him. Across the battlefield, Lily too stopped in place, her lightning whips halted mid-arc, frozen like statues of energy.

The Red Shrine behind Su Fei shined brighter, pulsing with temporal power.

And then it began.

The rain moved in reverse. Hailstones returned to the clouds. Tyler felt his body being dragged backward—motion, breath, even thoughts began to rewind.

His mind screamed in protest. "What the heck is this?!"

He fought to speak, to resist, but the reversal continued.

Su Fei, however, moved freely. She floated down gracefully, stepping over the frozen battlefield as though strolling through her garden. Her tails fluttered with amusement.

"Surprised?" she cooed, glancing at the paralyzed Tyler. "This shrine isn’t just a backdrop. It’s my domain. With it, I control the flow of time."

She stopped inches from Tyler’s who was moving reverse in slow motion, tilting her head.

"You thought your little speed trick would be enough? How cute."

Though he couldn’t speak, Tyler’s eyes blazed with defiance.

Su Fei continued, "The Rain Domain was impressive. Even I was caught off guard. All right. Time to end this farce."

She raised her glowing fan again, about to land a devastating blow on Tyler.
